I have a 90-min RX modeling test coming up next week for a lateral analyst position. Any thoughts on what this could be? Maybe an LBO or three statement from scratch? I figure it can't be too complex if there's only 90 mins but who knows.
Thanks!!

Hey there! Based on the most helpful WSO content, a 90-minute RX (Restructuring) modeling test for a lateral analyst position could involve a variety of tasks. It might include a simplified LBO or a three-statement model from scratch.
Given the time constraint, it's unlikely to be overly complex. However, it's always a good idea to be prepared for anything. I'd recommend brushing up on your skills with the WSO Elite Modeling Package, which covers a wide range of topics including financial statement modeling, DCF, M&A, LBO, and Excel Modeling.
Remember, it's not just about speed, but also accuracy and presentation. So, take a deep breath, trust your training, and you'll do just fine. Good luck, and let me know if you need any more advice!
